    Sense this is malware or virus or bad files I posted here. I know the read and run and was clean. But I recently ran avira antivir personal free edition and I came up with few files that said either it was a virus or an unwanted file. Heres what they are these 1st two are from limewire folder that my gf use to use and stop using sense I told her nothing but bad stuff off that program. But in the detection it says 1st one is EXP/ASF.GetCodec.GEN and second file in folder says for dection TR/Dldr.Agent.WMA. and then the third is Object - pojoxava.html detection TR/Click.Small.JF.8, the fourth is A0237117.exe detection TR/Trash.Gen, fifth is A0237118.dll detection TR/Agent.vnr, and 6th is A0237119/dll detection TR.Trash.Gen. Now Iam sure the 1st two are songs and rest I don't know. And also can I get rid of them or false positives? Or what?

    I would suspect that they are not false positives. Without the actual file for the first two, it is hard to tell, but the fact that they are downloads of music by way of limewire, I would suspect then highly. The others need to go bye bye. So to sum it up, yes. Remove it all. :)

    I must have passed up this thread of mine. I just thought it got passed and so I came to bump it. But those are all okay to get rid of? And I know its bad to have music like those but are they really harmful? I care less about the songs, I am just asking if there actual harmful.

    As I said....the first ones without knowing the path, I can't say for certain. But I will repeat that you need to delete them.
